“Slmpprial”  PriBut-Plat?  (HlaHa 

Our  Large  Plates  of  prism  glass  are  54  inches 
wide  and  72  inches  high,  or  72  inches  wide  and  54 
inches  high,  or  can  be  furnished  as  desired  in  single 
lights  of  smaller  cut  sizes.  They  are  pressed,  ground 
and  polished  on  one  side,  and  have  the  brilliancy 
and  finish  of  polished  plate  glass.  It  is  as  much 
superior  to  the  common,  rolled  sheet  prism  as 
polished  plate  is  to  the  ordinary  window  glass,  and 
the  street  surface  of  our  glass  being  polished  corre¬ 
sponds  with  other  plate  glass  used  in  the  building, 
and  does  not  detract  from  its  appearance,  like  the 
rolled  sheets  or  small  wired  4-inch  prism  squares. 
Architects  will  appreciate  this. 


Beautiful  in  Appearance  Imperial  Prism  Plate- 
Glass  is  a  beautiful  product.  It  is  well  annealed  and 
tempered,  and  cuts  with  a  diamond  like  plate  glass, 
and  has  the  same  strength  and  durability. 
It  should  be  used  in  upper  sash  of  windows  in 
connection  with  clear  glass  in  the  lower  sash,  and 
when  so  installed  it  makes  an  ideal  window,  and 
is  a  most  eltective  and  economical  way  of  lighting 
interiors  at  a  great  saving  of  gas  or  electricity. 


In  Efficiency  the  large  plate  or  light  being  cut 
to  fill  the  entire  sash  of  the  window  opening,  the 
effect  of  illumination  is  largely  increased  over  the 
old  style  AiX^-inch  prism  plates  framed  up  with  a 
network  of  wires  which  obstruct  the  light 


Easily  Cleaned  Our  large  polished  prismatic 
lights  are  easily  cleaned  like  ordinary  glass.  They 
do  not  have  hundreds  of  corners,  inside  and  out¬ 
side,  to  catch  the  dust  and  dirt,  like  the  small 
4x4-inch  prisms  put  together  with  wires  or  bars  in 
the  old  way. 

No  Rust  or  Leaks  Our  prism  glass  being  in  one 
plate,  and  not  framed  up  like  the  small  4-inch 
prisms,  there  is  no  metal  work  to  corrode  or  wear 
out,  requiring  costly  renewal,  and  there  can  be  no 
leaks  in  the  corners  to  cause  damage  from  dust, 
snow  or  rain.

IT  greatly  increases  the  amount  of  light  over 
that  obtained  by  the  use  of  plain  plate  or 
window  glass. 

It  makes  possible  a  reduction  of  a  large  per¬ 
centage  in  the  area  of  light- wells,  which  area  can 
be  put  into  valuable  store  space. 

It  increases  the  value  of  rentals. 

It  lights  up  dark  corners. 

It  reduces  or  cuts  out  entirely  the  use  of  artificial 
light  in  the  daytime. 

It  proves  a  good  investment,  and  soon  pays  for 
itself  when  properly  installed. 

Its  use  is  founded  on  scientific  principles. 

Its  value  is  recognized  as  a  necessary  article  in 
building  construction. 

With  our  large  polished  plates  it  is  easily  installed 
and  cleaned. 

Perusal  of  the  following  pages  will  show  you 
how  simple  a  matter  it  is  to  select  and  order  prism 
glass.  There  is  no  occasion  to  pay  extraordinary 
prices  for  so-called  engineering.  Prism  glass  is  a 
staple  product  and  should  be  sold  as  such. 

f^  Any  glazier  can  set  prism  glass  in  ordinary  sash 

just  as  readily  as  he  can  set  a  piece  of  plate.  The 
only  thing  necessary  is  to  select  the  right  angle 
from  the  foregoing  table,  and  in  certain  cases  to 
make  a  slight  increase  in  sash- weights.  On  every 
piece  of  glass  shipped  we  place  a  tag  stating  plainly, 
which  is  the  top  and  which  the  outside.  Even  if 
these  tags  should  become  detached,  however,  any¬ 
one  can  determine  by  referring  to  the  preceding 
table  just  how  the  glass  ought  to  be  set. 

All  prism  glass,  except  the  inverted  prisms 
I-B  and  I-C,  are  set  with  the  shorter  angle 
to  the  top  of  the  window.  Inverted  prisms  are 
set  with  the  shorter  angle  to  the  bottom  of  the 
window.

TT7HEN  ordering  prism  glass  always  state  whieh 
*  ~  is  the  width  and  which  the  height  of  the 
glass,  naming  the  width  first.  If  no  other  direc¬ 
tions  are  given  a  light  ordered  24x36  is  under¬ 
stood  to  be  24  inches  wide  and  36  inches  high, 
and  if  ordered  36x24  is  understood  to  be  36  inches 
wide  and  24  inches  high.  This  is  very  important 
in  ordering  prism  glass. 

To  ascertain  the  proper  prism  to  use  in  order 
to  get  the  best  results  in  any  case,  simply  divide 
the  height  of  the  opposite  building  (above  the 
center  of  the  window  in  which  the  glass  is  to  be 
installed)  by  the  width  of  the  street,  alley  or  court. 

The  quotient  Q  is  equal  to  the  height  of  opposite 
building  divided  by  the  width  of  the  street,  alley 
or  court.

Prism  glass  is  to  be  installed  in  windows  a,  b,  c 
of  building  A,  these  windows  being  respectively  10, 
20  and  30  feet  above  the  street.  The  total  height 
from  the  ground  to  the  roof  of  the  opposite  build¬ 
ing  B  is  60  feet,  and  the  width  of  the  street  50  feet. 

The  height  then  of  the  opposite  building  B  above 
the  center  of  window  a  is  60  feet  minus  10  feet 
or  50  feet.  This  divided  by  50,  the  width  of  the 
street,  gives  the  quotient  Q,  or  1.00. 

Since  Q  in  this  case  is  between  .92  and  1.1.1 
the  proper  prism  to  use  for  window  a  is  I-B. 

In  the  same  way  for  window  b  the  height  of 
,the  opposite  building  above  the  center  of  the  window 
is  60  feet  minus  20  feet  equals  40  feet,  and  40  feet 
divided  by  width  of  street,  50  feet,  gives  quotient 
of  .80,  and  .80  being  between  .74  and  .92  for 
window  b,  use  B  prism. 

For  window  c  the  height  of  the  opposite  build¬ 
ing  above  the  center  of  the  window  is  60  feet 
minus  30  feet,  which  leaves  30  feet,  and  30  feet 
divided  by  the  width  of  the  street,  50  feet ,  gives  us 
a  quotient  of  .60,  therefore  the  CC  prism  should 
be  used  for  window  c. 

In  all  cases  prism  glass  should  be  set  as  close  to 
the  outside  line  of  the  building  as  possible. 

“Canopy”  or  “Skylight”  prism  glass  may  be 
used  at  the  discretion  of  the  architect  in  places 
where  the  quotient  is  above  1.43.

Gentlemen:  — 

Replying  to  your  inquiry  of  this  date  I  beg  to  say  your 
lights  installed  on  our  first  and  second  floors  have  made  it 
possible  to  cut  out  the  arc  lamps  except  on  the  darkest  days, 
and  we  are  now  able  to  match  colors  at  any  point  on  the  floor 
— to  us  a  matter  of  greatest  importance. 

The  saving  on  our  light  bill  has  been  considerable,  but 
exact  figures  will  not  be  obtainable  until  we  have  made  a  fur 
ther  test. 

We  will  be  glad  to  have  you  refer  to  us  any  time. 

Yours  very  truly,

Dear  Sir: — 


In  reply  to  your  inquiry  as  to  how  well  satisfied 
we  are  with  the  3,000  ft.  of  pressed  prism-plate  glass 
which  you  installed  for  us,  I  desire  to  state  that  the 
results  are  far  better  than  were  anticipated.  There 
are  certain  hours  during  the  day  when  we  can  put 
out  practically  all  the  arc  lights  on  our  first  and 
second  floors. 

I  have  asked  our  head  porter  regarding  the 
cleaning  of  this  glass,  and  he  reports  that  he  ex¬ 
periences  no  difficulty  whatever  in  keeping  same  in 
first-class  condition. 

You  are  at  liberty  to  bring  any  prospective 
purchaser  to  our  store  at  any  time,  where  they  can 
see  for  themselves  just  what  the  glass  is -doing.

Dear  Sir: — 

Regarding  your  inquiry  relative  to  the  cost  of  cleaning 
your  Imperial  Polished  Plate  Prisms  and  Ornamental  Glass  as 
compared  with  the  cost  of  cleaning  other  patterns  of  obscure 
glass  will  say  that  we  have  installed  in  the  annex  of  our  build¬ 
ing  here  over  14,000  sq.  ft.  of  Imperial  Polished  Prisms  and 
Ornamental  Glass,  about  25%  of  this  being  Polished  Prisms. 
It  has  been  my  experience  that  owing  to  the  smooth  glazed 
surface  on  one  side,  and  the  ground  and  polished  surface  on 
the  other  side  of  your  product,  makes  the  cleaning  of  same  far 
easier  than  Chipped  Plate  Glass  or  any  pattern  of  Rolled  Glass, 
and  the  use  of  prisms  in  the  upper  sash  of  our  building,  has 
not  required  any  additional  janitor  service  than  we  are  using 
in  the  main  building,  where  we  have  polished  plate  in  both  the 
upper  and  lower  sash. 

Yours  very  truly,

Bear  Sir; 

Replying  to  your  inquiry  as  to  how  we 
like  the  *'  Imperial  Plate  Ornamental  Glass  '*  which 
we  are  putting  into  doors  and  transoms  of  our  new 
bank  building,  I  take  pleasure  in  saying  that  It  ie 
eminently  satisfactory.  As  you  are  aware,  our 
original  contracts  called  for  chipped  plate  glass, 
and  when  my  attention  was  called  to  this  new  and  rary 
brilliant  glass,  I  oanoelled  the  order  for  the  chipped 
plate,  and  am  rery  glad  indeed  that  I  did  so,  as  the 
eff:>ci  of  this  new  glass  is  much  better.  All  the 
tenants  in  our  building  like  it  very  much.

Made  in  unit  plates  up  to  18x60  inches 

P'OR  skylights,  roofs  over  areaways,  in  light- 
wells,  etc.,  in  which  it  is  desired  to  use  prism 
glass,  we  furnish  Imperial  Prism  Skylight  Plates. 
This  product  is  not  ground  or  polished,  and  is  made 
with  a  i-inch  back  besides  length  of  prisms,  and 
thick  enough  to  conform  to  the  requirements  of 
the  underwriters. 

On  account  of  the  large  size  of  the  units,  18x60 
inches,  and  the  smooth  shape  of  their  borders,  the 
number  of  joints  and  the  possibility  of  leakage  is 
reduced  to  a  minimum.  The  use  of  these  large 
sized  prism  skylight  plates  also  immensely  reduces 
the  cost  of  met  1  construction  in  which  they  are 
placed.  The  largest  skylight  prism  plate  hitherto 
manufactured  is  only  13x13  inches.  Our  unit 
plates  can  be  cut  to  any  smaller  size. 


They  are  absolutely  the  best  product  on  the 
market  for  lighting  rear  parts  of  deep  stores, 
for  roofs  railway  stations,  sheds,  etc.  They  can 
be  used  horizontally,  but  to  give  the  best  effect 
should  be  set  on  an  angle  of  30^  to  45°. 

If  amount  of  order  warrants  expense  of  die  the 
size  of  the  units  in  which  this  glass  is  now  made 
can  be  increased  either  in  width  or  height,  or  both.
